Default Has anyone played the chess computer called IVAN ??

In article ,
says...
I asked this on the computer board but nobody responded ...
This IVAN computer is made by excalibur and it talks to you and say "
i will destroy you " i will make you call me uncle Ivan....
Anyway the store is going out of business and it dropped the price
from 70 $ to 48 $ and i bet if i go there on their last day i can get
them down to 40 $ to 45 $ ????
Just wondering if someone played it before and to let me know if they
liked it or not..

Thanks for any info......

I know a little bit about the Ivan. Is this the Ivan I or Ivan II model.
If it is Ivan II then a $48 price would be great as the Ivan II usually
sells for around $80.

The Ivan II uses a 10 MHz processor. (Running about 2 MHz faster than
Talking LCD Chess which uses a similar processor.) It's Elo rating is
around 1850.
